Challenges in diagnosing and treating ossifying fibroma in adolescent patients - a case report and review of literature.
Review in BMC oral health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundOssifying fibroma (OF) is a non-common benign fibrous-osseous lesion with highly aggressive behavior and tends to recur. Here, we report a case where Ossifying Fibroma (OF) was diagnosed in an adolescent female patient and was treated by marginal mandibular resection to avoid esthetic and functional defects in the future. CASE PRESENTATION: OF was diagnosed in a 13-year-old woman incidentally. Cone-Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) examination showed a hypodense lesion compromising the vestibular table and 34 and 35 teeth. An incisional biopsy was performed to determine the histopathological diagnosis. After a multidisciplinary consensus, tooth extraction and surgical resection of the lesion were done. In the same way, bone reconstruction using the Khoury technique with an autologous graft of an external oblique line and with a mixture of autogenous and allogenic bone and fixation screws. Clinical and imaging follow-ups after 1, 4, 15, and 23 months were included, evidencing integration of the grafts in the treated zone.
conclusionsOF early identification and treatment are essential to minimize risks of losing tissues in young people. Also, to avoid negative consequences in the people´s quality of life associated with bone and teeth loss. This highlights the importance of radiographic surveillance, analyses, and interdisciplinary collaboration to optimize clinical outcomes in patients with similar conditions.
